Prayer for Grace for our Country
Dear Father united to Jesus in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the Sacrifice of Calvary sacramentally made present, celebrated around the world, in the Holy Spirit. We offer up all we do united to the Mass. We unite in one mind and one heart as members of the mystical body of Christ, with Christ our head in the pure and holy Hearts of Jesus and Mary, through the powerful intercession of Mary with all the angels and saints and souls in purgatory, and we beg for the saving grace, for our country, the United States. Please help us. We further pray for unity to always do the will of God in love. We spread the Blood of Jesus on the leaders and people of the United States and cast the devil into hell. We consecrate our country to the Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart and all our dioceses, and beg for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit. God help us. We pray for our families, the priests, the Church and the world. In the Name of Jesus please hear us, we pray. We pray for our new president as he takes office. We pray that we are united as one nation under God to work together in love as God wants.

R. God gives us the Eucharist – God wants to
feed the life He gives us in baptism –
He said "I come that you may have life
and have it more abundantly"
Song: I Love You Jesus
Sing: I Am the Bread of Life
John 15: 13
No one can have greater love
than to lay down his life for his friends.
R. Dear Jesus thank You for the Eucharist.
Jesus: I long for you to come and receive Me,
I am your beloved God. I died for you,
I want you to live eternally with Me
in heaven. I am the bread of life –
Sing: A Song from Jesus

A Prayer for Holy Communion
R. As I give more and more of what I am attached to away, nobody can have a hold on me. I become, more and more, the little dependent baby in His arms. I depend on Him for everything. It is hard to let go of this to be as a little baby, dependent on Him for everything.
If, when I receive Jesus, I receive God, then so, in some form, I receive the Father and Holy Spirit because how do you separate them?
And the doors to the tabernacle open wide and in it we behold Jesus, Son of God, God-made-man. His presence is to be honored, His name worshiped and adored. His glory is forever.
Jesus: I come as a little baby into your midst. I died out of love of you. I come to you today in Holy Communion. This is God-made-man, Son of God, coming in your hearts to dwell with you. Do not focus on your unworthiness. Focus on His love, just for you, to come to you today. I love you so much and God is truly in your mouth. Be close to Me. Let go of yourself. Enter into total union with Me, soul to soul. Be united with Me totally in your spirit. Forget all the cares of this world and let Me dwell in you and work in your heart. Let Me heal your weary soul.
Open wide your gates and I enter in and you remain changed, never the same because Jesus Christ, Son of God, came to you and dwelt in your soul. You are My temple.

A Prayer before the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass
Let me be a holy sacrifice and unite with God in the sacrament of His greatest love.
I want to be one in Him in this act of love, where He gives Himself to me and I give myself as a sacrifice to Him. Let me be a holy sacrifice as I become one with Him in this my act of greatest love to Him.
Let me unite with Him more, that I may more deeply love Him. May I help make reparation to His adorable Heart and the heart of His Mother, Mary. With greatest love, I offer myself to You and pray that You will accept my sacrifice of greatest love. I give myself to You and unite in Your gift of Yourself to me. Come and possess my soul.
Cleanse me, strengthen me, heal me. Dear Holy Spirit act in the heart of Mary to make me more and more like Jesus.
Father, I offer this my sacrifice, myself united to Jesus in the Holy Spirit to You. Help me to love God more deeply in this act of my greatest love.
Give me the grace to grow in my knowledge, love and service of You and for this to be my greatest participation in the Mass. Give me the greatest graces to love You so deeply in this Mass, You who are so worthy of my love.
-Mass Book, December 27, 1995
LET US
LOVE THE TWO HEARTS
OF JESUS AND MARY
IN THE RECEPTION OF THE
HOLY EUCHARIST.
HE GAVE HIMSELF TO US ON THE CROSS. HE GIVES HIMSELF TO US IN THE EUCHARIST.
How great was the act of love, God gave to this world, when He gave Himself and died on the cross. He gives Himself to us this day in the Holy Eucharist.
The greatest commandment is that we must love God with our whole heart, our whole soul, and our whole being. This is a commandment. If we are to enter heaven, we must follow the commandments. They are commands given by God for us to follow.
The greatest act we can do on this earth is an act of loving God. The reason for our existence is to love God. In the sacrament of His greatest love, He gives Himself to us. This is an act of love on His part. We are called to respond by giving ourselves in love to Him.
This is the purpose of the Holy Eucharist: to unite in such oneness with our Holy, Loving God. Our all consuming passion should be that of loving God. How many go to the Eucharist with the sole purpose of giving great love to God? He wants us to love Him. He wants souls to tell Him how much they truly love Him. This is the most intimate act of love when Jesus gives Himself-Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity to man. If it is such an act of love, how are we receiving Him in Communion? We should beg God, in this most intimate union with Him, to help us to love Him with greatest love.
Jesus is a Person. He wants our love. The Holy Spirit wants such intimacy with us. Our Father wants us to love Him. In the Eucharist, we unite with God. In this intimate act of uniting with our beloved God, with Divinity, we must pour out our love to God. We must pour out our heart to the most adorable Heart of Jesus. Jesus is so unjustly treated by many of His beloved souls He loves so much. Let us help make reparation to the Almighty God by loving God with our whole heart, our whole soul, and our whole being in the sacrament of His greatest love. This is the Gift of Himself.
Think of how it is to love someone and give your all for that person, to pour out your heart to him or her and then be treated with coldness and neglect. It hurts our heart so much more when we deeply love someone to be rejected by that person. Jesus loves us with the deepest love. We cannot fully comprehend this love. Let us love Him with the deepest love. Let us love Mary and her Immaculate Heart. Let us love her as the Mother of God. Let us love her as the virgin who bore the Son of God. May we, in the reception of the Eucharist pour out our love to Him, to this adorable Heart. May we pour out our love to His Holy Mother.
Mary said at Fatima that Jesus wants His Heart venerated next to the heart of His Mother. Let us love these two Hearts as we receive the Sacrament of the Eucharist. Then we are so deeply united with God. We see Their two Hearts surrounded with thorns for the injustices against Their Hearts. Let us help make reparation daily as we receive Him in the Eucharist. This is a special time to help make reparation to Their wounded Hearts.
Let us remember how He poured His love out to us on the cross and how He pours out His love to us now when He gives us Himself in the Eucharist, the Eucharist which contains His Heart of burning love. His Heart was pierced with a lance. Her heart was invisibly pierced with a sword. As the wounds in Their Hearts are deep, so too is Their love so deep.
He does not want "surface love". He wants hearts filled with deep burning love.
IT IS IN THE CROSS WE WILL BE RAISED TO NEW LIFE
His anguish was so great in the garden for the endless hours He would remain in the tabernacle, neglected by so many. I see the Host and a cup plainly, above the agony and the angel. See Jesus in such agony in the garden.
An angel appeared at Fatima - what did he say?
The angel came…bearing a golden chalice in one hand and a Host above it in the other. The amazed children noticed that drops of blood were falling from the Host into the chalice. Presently, the angel left both suspended in mid-air and prostrated himself on the ground, saying this beautiful prayer: "Most Holy Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, I adore You profoundly. I offer You the most precious Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Jesus Christ, present in all tabernacles of the world, in reparation for the outrages, sacrileges, and indifference by which He is offended. By the infinite merits of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and [the intercession of] the Immaculate Heart of Mary, I beg of Thee the conversion of poor sinners."51
This is the greatest agony I have experienced over the rejection and indifference given to Him by His chosen ones. We were called to the Catholic faith - it is a great honor to be baptized and receive divine life! Election to be called a Catholic, election to receive the Holy Eucharist, our First Communion!
The thorns around His Heart are for the indifference and rejection given to Him. Think of it, to give Himself to us in the deepest intimacy and be rejected by us creatures. His Heart filled with love - He is Love Himself - and He is rejected by many of His Catholic elect!
Mary is treated without respect and honor, even by many Catholics.
It is the faithful that help make reparation in the reception of the Eucharist that comfort Their Hearts.
Mary's heart is surrounded by thorns from the blasphemies against her Immaculate Heart, Her Immaculate Conception, against her as the Mother of God, against her images.
Jesus' Heart is surrounded by thorns for the injustices and neglect against Him. It is our devotion and adorable reception of the Holy Eucharist that was sweetness to His bitter pain in the Garden.
I cried so hard at Holy Cross-Immaculata Catholic Church under the cross and by the Lourdes Grotto because I so deeply wanted to love God, Who is worthy of all my love. I cried because I love God so much and want to give Him great love. In Mary's heart, I can love Him more. She loves Him more than any human person. Her heart is pure and sinless. I want to unite to Him in deepest love. By dwelling in her heart, I am dwelling more deeply in His Heart.
Oh heart of Mary, place me in the deepest recesses of His Heart that I may love Him more and more and love my adorable Father and the Holy Spirit, my beloved, beloved friend.
I just love God so much it makes me cry to talk to Him.
I carry with me the cross of Christ forever in my heart as He carried His cross. I carry His cross in my heart. I love His adorable wounds in His hands and feet and with the tenderest love I love the wound in His side. I love His body as He hangs on the cross- this is love. This is how He loves me, this is how He loves each person-to His death.
The sun shines, and as it shines I behold the cross of Christ. He is the Light to this world. By carrying His cross in our hearts, we share in His life. It is in the cross that we will be raised to new life in Him!
I could write pages on the words "In Him." These are my favorite words as they denote my relationship with Him. I am one in the Word of God. He is the Word. He is living in this world. I feel every word, for it is in me as Christ is in me. His Word is in me and lives in me.
I exist in Him, and His Word lives in me. I love Him. I love the Word of God. I am fed by His Body and Blood. I am fed by His Word. My heart burns to hear it - to read it - I feel it alive in me because He is alive in me!
Think of how it would be to stand tied at the pillar and be slapped by instruments that burned your flesh and tore it, to be slapped on the arms and the face and the back and to hear the loud laughs of the men whipping you. How cruel were the hearts of those who whipped Him, and how His Heart ached for they were loved so by Him!
A PRAYER
BEFORE THE
TABERNACLE TO MY
DIVINE LOVER
My most precious Jesus, I am here with You - the Almighty God, truly present, no less present than when You walked this earth.
I love You so much. I just want to love You with the deepest love, my Almighty God.
Oh that I can unite deeper to You in such oneness, You Who are so perfect and loving and good. You unite to my wretched being. I want so much to be an instrument to spread this love to all, to know You and Your love, which is so great. I am compelled to tell all how dearly You truly love them.
Oh Jesus, let my great love for You, which is so little, be magnified to deeper love for You as I unite to You, for in this union with You, I am loving You more. I long with all my heart to unselfishly love You. You are my God, all worthy of all my love.
I want to help make reparation for those who do not love You and those, who through indifference, have forgotten You.
To love You is to feel the pains of the thorns that surround Your Heart for the indifference and neglect of Your beloved souls.
I adore You. I worship You. I cannot express in words my deep love for You. I am Yours, Lord. Help me, every moment, to do the will of the Father. I offer this prayer and petition to the Father, in the name of Jesus, in union with the Holy Spirit, with all the angels and saints, and the souls in purgatory.
I am Rita…help me to know, love, and serve You more.
I WANT TO GIVE HIM THE GREATEST LOVE
After 8:30 a.m. Mass at the Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center:
I wanted only to love Him more deeply. I realized that as I unite with Him in Holy Communion and become one in Him, I can give Him the greatest love at this moment since He is in this union with me.
I am treasuring this moment immensely, for I am realizing it is in this moment that He is greatly loved by me, and I want to give Him such great love. I realize how He is so worthy of love! I want to love Him for the indifference and neglect of so many souls. I know, in my being, the emotions He has allowed me to experience. I feel the pain of the neglect and indifference of souls against Him. I want to comfort His Heart by giving Him such love.
I know the pains He has allowed me to experience, the rejection, the sufferings, the hurt, and I want to comfort His Heart of burning love. I know what love He wants from us, His creatures, and I love Him so much. I realize His worthiness to be loved. I want to love Him so deeply.
FEED THE HUNGRY SOULS
I want to love deeply, my Lord. It is in knowing Him more, I love Him more. I beg Him for insights of Himself that I will know Him more. I know Him greatly through the intimate experiences I have had with Him. He and Mary have allowed me to experience deep insights into Their sufferings and love, deep insights into the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.
If I am closed, I remain locked inside. Love flows from the heart. Love is not words spoken only. Love is the giving of one's self to another person or cause.
Children need this love from their parents. There is a whole generation of children that are receiving substitute moms and dads. Instead of love from their parents, they are given things. Things are not heart-felt love. To love God more, it helps to know the love of another. We see love reflected from God through the eyes of our parents, by their time and attention.
God is love. He is always there. He is attentive to all our needs. He gives and keeps on giving. I do not have to fear for want of love. I know that He is one in me. I am living in this love!
Children today are not given this love. They are given all they need physically, all they can absorb technically, intellectually, all they need to make the appearance of perfection: a beautiful house, a beautiful car, a room adorned with such decorations, some have a private bath, a computer, a television, a VCR, a compact disk player, a telephone, a beautiful suntanned body, a swimming pool, the greatest sports equipment, the right label on their clothes and shoes. They are taken to every sport event so they can participate and be the greatest player, but what about the family meal? What about the nights the family sits and talks about things in their hearts? What about the family rosary? We are raising a heartless, self-indulgent society of youth. Their hearts are dying inside, while their bodies are adorned to perfection. It is what I call the "inside-out syndrome." Everything exists for how we look on the outside and the inside (the heart) is dying and shriveling up inside the body.
I envision Mary standing beneath the cross and feel the pain for her little, lost children. I envision Mary before me and hear her call out for the children that will lose their souls and go to hell. I hear Mary, our heavenly Mother, call out at Fatima. I hear her urgent cry and as at Fatima - who listens?
Satan has attacked our hearts. They are closed and dying in our bodies. We have every hair in place and every muscle exercised. We know the fat level in every muffin and the calories in every spoon of yogurt, but the heart of man is dying within the body.
The starved hearts of the world cry out, more and more, "Please feed our hungry!" We are starving and the world fills the hearts and souls with more and more pleasures and things. The focus is hollow, the eyes are fixed, and what of the little ones who do not even know how to feed the pangs of hunger within their souls?
His Heart was pierced with a lance; her heart was pierced with a sword of sorrow.
His way is the way of the heart.
ABOUT THE MAGNIFICAT
Written at 6:45 p.m. at All Saints:
I had such an experience and was overwhelmed by the love of Jesus.
Written later at 8:30 a.m. at Mass:
Fr. Carter spoke about the Magnificat today in the Gospel. It made me cry. This is exactly how I have felt - so little, like a speck, but under the cross at Holy Cross-Immaculata Catholic Church on December 15, I was not little. He had raised me to such heights in Him. It was as if I was elevated in the corner of His burning Heart, and I was existing in Him and being in Him!
I cried hardest at the Consecration - I am so aware of heaven and what is going on, filled with deep, deep emotion at the miracle taking place as I unite myself in this sacrifice with Him. I die more and more to myself and unite to Him. Such emotion, for it is in the Mass I am being more deeply one in Him, dying to myself and uniting to Him.
After Mass, I was surrounded by His love, joined in His embrace as at Holy Cross-Immaculata Catholic Church under the cross. I do not care who is there - I am lost in Him. He and heaven are all that exist to me. He and His Heart - I did not feel sorrow. I felt His embrace as if He pressed me to Himself. It was as if I felt the thorns surrounding His Heart press into me. Now my heart really hurts. My heart hurts so badly right now.
I feel the thorns that surround His Heart. I will forever feel these thorns when I look on His Heart surrounded by thorns. The thorns press into His most adorable Heart. They press for the neglect and indifferences shown to Him, especially in His sacrament of greatest love, the Eucharist.
I am so weak. I am wiped out. I know many agonies and many joys in the Mass. I know His deep love and the excruciating pain He suffered. I know what it is to be embraced by His love and feel the thorns pressed against my heart. I know the Almighty God in such a way I cannot even write here.
After Communion, I felt embraced, deeply, by the presence of God and satisfied, but I felt pain in my heart.
I remember Christmas 1993, the pain was so excruciating. It started at church, and I went home and wanted to scream or express it in some way. I went to my room before my big Sacred Heart picture that was with me when I wrote, and the pain was unbearable. I will never forget it. It is from these experiences I intimately know my beloved Lord.
I feel it is Jesus and I. I can share with Mary too. How she knows His Heart. I can't really share the deep, deep place I have been with anyone. Jesus knows I remember the intimate times with Him in Mary's House at the Center - so many wonderful experiences with my Divine Lover as He revealed the deep insights into His life, His love, His sufferings, and Mary revealed the insights and intimacies between her and her Son. She revealed her suffering and so much more. I now am experiencing deep insight into them here at Holy Cross-Immaculata Catholic Church, especially under the cross and at the 12th station. This is how it was this morning before the tabernacle. I was embraced, as I was here, to a small degree with His divine love. I am wiped out now.
Mary, as I meditate on the mysteries of the rosary, you, who dwell in His Heart and know His Heart, share what you know of God with me that I may love Him and share in His love.
"My Heart is an open furnace of endless love. It is open and on fire for love of you, My dear ones. I held back not one drop of My blood. I spread My arms and gave the last beat of My Heart for you. I come to you in this book with this Heart open. It is a roaring fire, aflame for love of you every second, even when you are not thinking about Me. Read My love letters, written just for you. When you see this Heart, open and on fire, remember I love you in just this way, this very moment."
-Message from Jesus 12/19/94
Moments After Communion Are Precious
February 26, 1994 At St. Gertrude
Before Mass:
Jesus: I came that you would have life. I withstood this bitter persecution for love of you.
After Communion:
R. I want this relationship with Jesus to be as with a real person. He is truly present. He sits with us and it is in just being together that we love one another.
The moments after Communion are indeed so precious, as you love someone so much and do not want them to leave. He is truly present in the Eucharist, Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity. I do not want Him ever to leave. He is God. He is present in the tabernacle.
Our lover is truly Jesus. He wants us to long for Him and feel His presence. To just be with Jesus! When you love someone, you do not have to speak, just be with them. He wants us to relish every moment He is within our breast, to hang on every second He is with us, to feel a flutter in our breast that God is this near!
This is God. We are His tabernacle after Communion. God is in our body. We are holding God inside of our body!
How is our tabernacle? Is it clean and pure to behold the Son of God? Is our tongue the sacred entryway that He uses to come to us? Clean your tongue for His presence and keep it clean for Jesus, the Son of God, enters there!
Oh, Jesus, who are we that You wait for us to come to us in such a union? Who are we that You love us so much as to want us? Oh, Jesus, we adore You. We love You. We worship You. You are all deserving of such honor and praise. We bow before You in awe that Jesus, the Son of God, gives us such dignity! Oh, Jesus, sweet Jesus, at Your name we bow to You and at Your presence we are left numb! Oh, Jesus, our love, our love, our love. Permeate my soul, possess me and make me selfless so I only operate as You do within me.
Alleluia. Jesus is Lord!
I have not a care in this world because I have given myself to You and You are God. You have all the power and You know all things. You truly want to operate me. I give You myself in my entirety. I throw myself before You and ask You to take me as I am and live in me, to use me, to do as You will with me. I am Yours, Lord. I need not worry for You operate me.
God is always there. We are foolish, we certainly are, to think we control anything. Do we control the weather? Do we control our air? Oh, God, come and dwell in our hearts. Make us selfless and unattached to everything, for You are our Maker and You made us to be used by You. Use us as You see fit. We are Yours, Father. We give ourselves, our entirety, to you.
May the love of Jesus fill your heart to the brim. May you overflow in His love. May it radiate from your very being and His presence enfold you. So you walk only as He walks in you, you talk only as He talks in you, and you are the empty vessel, dwelled in by God, to love this world with His Love. Alleluia
Jesus: Oh, sweet one, I am truly here. You have your struggles and you worry but in all your fretting and fuming you see My presence and how I am there through it all. You, child, grow in these struggles. You grow in your love of Me. Life is not a place just to have fun. You are here to walk My walk with Me. The way to Me is the Way of the Cross. The little crosses I give you this day give you such growth and draw you closer to My Sacred Heart. Accept your suffering. It was handpicked and given just to you from Him Who loves you. Accept all I send you and grow in your deep love of Me.
I am Jesus, the Son of God. I loved you to My death and I give to you according to your need as you are drawn closer to Me. I know the workings of your heart and I want you, oh, so close to Me! I want a love affair with you. I want your heart to be filled with longing when you come to Me in Communion. Your love waits for you, My little one. I am waiting and I love you ardently. Come and be united to Me. Constantly pray the Prayer for Union with Jesus.
I love you so, little one. You are My beloved. I am God and you are My beloved. Come to Me. My love waits for you. I am on fire with love of You! Your heart on fire for love of Me is what will preach My gospel. You must come to Me and be filled by the fire of My love. This is the gospel I want you to preach from your very heart.
To live, to live for Me and Me alone! To have your heart skip a beat at the mention of My name! The love of God is alive in your hearts. You are on fire with this. You preach My love in your being. My love is emitted by your presence. What do you do when you are in love? You speak of your lover every chance you get. I want to be your lover. I want you to speak of Me as you would when you are in love. This will spread My love to all!
You need action from your heart. My love affair waits for you. It is a heart on fire for love of you. I want your hearts on fire for love of Me. I want this fire in your eyes. I want your words when you speak of Me to come forth from your lips with intense fire. Do not read My words in a "ho-hum" manner. When you deliver My readings at Mass, deliver them with a love on fire in your heart for Me.
It is this fire that will move the stony hearts. The love of God is a mighty force. It is not spoken with a person full of self. It should be spoken with a person on fire for love of God.
My love is action from your heart when you enkindle this love with Me. You need not think as you act. Your actions will be fired by My love. My message of love will flow from your soul.
Fire, My little ones, fire. I want an intimate love affair with you, action from your heart. This will preach My love to your sick brothers. What sets you apart is God alive in your breast! You need not fret or fume. Just come and be with Me. I can move mountains. Your actions will be My actions when I possess your soul. It is so easy and you make it so hard. Quit doing that. Come and surrender and give yourselves to Me. Throw yourself before Me. Let Me fill you with the fire of My love.
When I act, you do not think. I do it through you. A person fixed on Me is selfless. The person's actions are direct and steadfast. I will deliver the fire. You come for My love affair.
I have all you need, My beloved. Time alone with Me. This world will pass away and all that will remain will be the things of God.
Store up your treasures for the life hereafter. Our great love awaits and you are keeping us apart.
I love you. Jesus, Son of God.
R. To His death on the cross, He loved us. This is action from the heart. No little love!
Jesus: I am the greatest lover. I am the Sacred Heart of Jesus, on fire for love of you. To My death I loved you!
God Is There In Holy Communion
February 28, 1994 After Communion
Note: It was noisy right after Communion. He was upset.
R. Jesus, truly is in our midst! It is the fire of His love in our breasts that will warm the cold heart.
Jesus: How can you, in your indifference, walk from Me when I am truly present in your body? How can you, when you see Me hanging on the cross out of love for you, walk away when I, God, love you so much as to come and be inside of your body?
You are ignorant because you are busy for all the wrong things. If you, My little ones, were busy about our love affair, I would teach you all you need to know, but you busy yourself with such nonsense. You are so selfish. You talk of your foolish things and your tongue rattles such foolishness while Jesus, the Son of God, is in your breast. Be with Me, little ones, I am God!! What do you think you are doing?
Bow to God Who is with you! Such irreverence for the Son of God! You are ignorant because you are losing sight of Me. I am God. I am present. I am truly present in the Eucharist. Do you not behold God come to dwell within you? I am so upset at your lack of love for Me!
I died for you. I am God. I gave My life that you might live and you rattle on your way about such incidentals. Oh, little ones, you are so blind and I am so loving and good. You are missing the true treasure here. You are so blind. How do I shake you? I depend on you, My faithful servants, all those who read these letters, all those who hear My wailing in your heart, My cries in your head. Speak out after Communion when people are talking. Say, "God is here and in your bodies. Bow before Him and behold Jesus, the Son of God." Be with Me. Do not be irreverent for it wounds My aching heart. I am Jesus, the Son of God. I come to you with such love. I am present and in your midst. I am the same Jesus Who died for you That you receive in Communion.
Jesus comes to you--Jesus, God almighty--and you rattle away with senseless tongues, the same tongues that received Our Lord! Oh, cry out to My blind ones! Don't sit and listen. Silence the senseless ones. They need to be told My healing comes after Communion. I am in your bodies, little ones. God comes and enters your bodies.
"Say only the word, Lord, and I shall be healed." I come to you. I am the Almighty God, come to You!
I am Jesus, Son of God. How many times do I have to tell you? I am your lover. You speak about your lover. Speak about Me. Time is so short. Your commitments to Me, every minute of every day, will spread the word.
The day of the Lord is at hand. You are the sowers. You plant the seeds. You tell all of My ardent, undying love. You feed the hungry souls with the love of Jesus.
"Oh, Lord," you say, "I must clean my rugs, I must do my dishes." Who cares for your clean rugs and dishes? I am telling you to preach of My love--now! Souls are at stake. Their eternal life depends on the ardent love you are developing in your heart. You can only speak of My love with fire when you are on fire yourself. Be on fire with love of Me. Be about your love affair. What, little ones, is more important than your love affair with God-made-man in Jesus Christ! You keep yourself from Me. I am here.
I have all you need. I am God. No one has any power except as I allow it, and you go to creatures for your answers. Come to Me. I am the Almighty God. I am here. I am in the Eucharist. I am Jesus, the Son of God. I am waiting. I am crying for your love.
Come, our love affair awaits and I am the ardent lover. Nothing here will ever fill your soul. You search a barren desert for the life I so earnestly want to give you.
I am Jesus, Son of God. I am in your midst. I am one crying out to you for your love. Come to Me. Come and get all you ever need. I am God.
The love you seek, you crave, you want, the recognition you want--these are all that I have to give you. I am a person. I am the bridegroom of your soul. You look to this world to give you warmth in your heart. You look to find a flicker when you have a burning fire roaring in My Sacred Heart! Why do you go to dry land for water. I have all you seek. I fill you and you come to give to others. You want to give the love I have imparted to you. You give love. My love is the power, My love is the fire, My love is the light, My love is burning for you, little ones.
Quiet your mind and focus on Me, Jesus Christ, a real person, Who loves you ardently. Oh, how I love you, but you, in your feeble mind, cannot even imagine it and you run to the world for such senseless things. The world will never satisfy the craving in your soul. It can only be filled by the love of Jesus. I am Jesus. I am waiting for our love affair. You were created with the craving for Me and I am yours. I give you My love. You have a craving for love, My child. Each person was given a soul that craves this love that only Jesus can satisfy. You crave to be filled by Me. No one will ever give you what you need but Me and Me alone. It is the perfect fit, the hand in the glove--perfect!
You think someone will give you what you need. You think someone or some thing will satisfy you. Nothing satisfies the searching soul but the love of Jesus. The soul is restless until it rests in Him. You will not be filled on this earth. Your soul is restless here to behold God more, but you will not be satisfied until you get to heaven.
Sacrifice and come and be with Me. I watch you pursue your little whims and watch you only get disappointed and move to another whim. I am what Your soul thirsts for. I and I alone am what you seek. Come to Me, My little babies, we are a perfect fit. You will not feel satisfied here but your souls will find the love they crave in Me.
I give you bits and pieces, little glimpses of My love. You will not behold Me on earth. The craving you feel in your hearts, the ache, My little ones, is for the love of Jesus. Come and lay yourselves before the tabernacle. I will pour out My love to you. My love is that which you crave and it is lasting. Store up your treasures for the life hereafter. Do the things you do not want to do but, in your hearts, those which I am asking you, with great love, to do for Me!
My way is the way for you, My little ones. My way is the only way for you. I am the Way, the Truth and the Life. He who abides in Me will have the light of life.
R. God is present, Jesus in the tabernacle. He, God, waits for us and we don't come. What is more important than God? Is it that we are not really aware of His True Presence? We are only giving lip service to it. He, Jesus, Who died a brutal death, sits in the tabernacle and waits for us out of ardent love for us. He longs for us to come and be with Him with an aching heart for our love…and we do not come!
Jesus calls us to love God and to love one another. Love is action from the heart. The First Commandment commands Me to love God before all things. Love is emotional. Love is giving. Love God! How do you love God? Are your hearts on fire with love for Him? The First Commandment says to love God, love your neighbor. Action from the heart!
From the Stations of the Cross - February 22, 1995
3. Jesus Falls the First Time
Jesus: The cross was so heavy I could hardly walk. I held on to My cross for greatest love of you and in compliance with the Will of My Father. It became so hard to walk! The cross was so heavy! I fell. I fell and the cross fell on Me. They poked at Me, they struck Me, they demanded I get up. The pain from the instruments they used to poke Me and strike Me was so great! I somehow managed to get up.
When you fall under the weight of your cross, come to My Eucharistic Heart. I am no less present in the tabernacle and in the Eucharist than on the day I carried My cross. I wait with the same love that I had for you when I carried this cross and suffered such agony. Oh, how I love you!
October 1, 1994
I Feed the Hungry Soul
Jesus:
Another person cannot feed your hungry soul. You search, you seek. Your starved soul craves only that which I can give. When your heart is searching for love, come, My sweet dear child, into My Heart. My Mother will take you to the deepest recesses of My Heart. There you will know such comfort - in My Heart on fire for love of you this day.You are a child of dignity. You are precious to Me. You are the creation of the Father. I gave the last drop of My blood for you. This is love - you need grace to realize the immenseness of God's love. You are so special to God, all three Persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Mary loves you so much.
You can never be satisfied on this earth. If you find the dearest mother, father, lover, friend, they will not fill you with the love your soul craves. To find Me is to seek Me. You will not be satisfied on this earth.
You, My child, experience longing for My intense love. I love you to want Me. This is how I long for love of each precious soul. I long for them with the most tender Heart, beating and breathing with fire. I never falter. I never grow dim. I am the same, with the same burning love. Come to Me and jump into My precious Heart. I love you so much.

Guiding Light homily series — Reflect on the Word — Cycle B The Word leaves an impression on our souls. In my thoughts and reflections are born a more tangible understanding of these eternal concepts presented in the Gospels and the readings. Anyone can read a sentence, but not anyone can absorb it's true meaning. Truth, in this day and age, is almost a matter of opinion or individual entitlement. We believe that Christ's truth is our Roman Catholic Church. We, as priests, champion it's teachings; we are ambassadors for the Pope and Christ to those faces looking at us. We are the light by which our congregation reads to reflect upon real truth and we do it hand in hand. $15 |
|
|

|
Guiding Light homily series — Steadfast to the Son — Cycle A The sunflower is a great example of how we should be steadfastly guided by light. What a powerful thought that this exceptional plant is not stuck in one pose day in and day out, yet adaptable and magnetized to the sun. We feel the same about our Son. Our heads turns to face Christ as each day presents its challenges to find light. We join together like plants in a field and soak up the Son through the pulpit. We are a warm circle of strength using the wind of our breath to carry our priests' words, Christ's words, to new rich soil. $15 |
|
|
||||
|
Guiding Light — Focusing on the Word — Cycle B At times we may feel that our path to Christ is a bit "out of focus". Like the disciples in the Book of Mark, this ordinary life clouds our vision of Christ's Divinity. We may doubt the practicality or possibility of applying His teachings and example to our modern life. Cycle B's homilies are a "guiding light" to help us realize Jesus' Messianic greatness and His promise of better things to come. $15 |
|
|
||||
|
Guiding Light — Feed My Soul — Cycle C In a world rapidly advancing and encouraging personal gain, we are faced with modern problems. There is a challenge to find time in our busy schedules for Sunday Mass or a family meal. We are able to research, shop, bank and even work without hearing one human voice. It is no wonder that we may often feel disconnected and famished at our week's end. In Fr. Joe's third book of homilies from Cycle C, we are reminded of the charity that Christ intended us to show each other. We have a calling to turn the other cheek and be the Good Samaritan to others. We are rewarded with the Father's kingdom and love when we are not worthy. We are not left alone or hungry. $15 |

Priestly Newsletter — 2000 #1 — CD. — Christ is Our Strength — Fr. Edward Carter, S.J. read it the year he died. It is so beautiful. "This brief passage contains one of the greatest lessons of the spiritual life. As we progress along our spiritual journey, we become increasingly aware of how weak we are in our—selves, but how strong we are in Christ. To experience our weakness involves suffering. The degree and kind of suffering can vary. The suffering can include the experience of the classical dark night of the spirit as described by St. John of the Cross. One of the main purposes of the dark night is to make a person keenly aware of his or her helplessness without God." quote by Fr. Carter from the newsletter $10 |
